It's not a poll, the Republicans won 2/2 House seats in special elections.

By the way, fake news sample by the NY Times:

You post a pic with supposed photoshopping that wasnt one to make fun of some democrats, which is both wrong and off topic and then you talk about fake news from the NY Times?

That was just a funny picture, dude, I thought they photoshopped suicide prevention info over election results because it is a standard meme but it turned out to be real. How is that equivalent to what the New York Times tweeted, suppressing the truth about 9/11?

I think you're suppressing some neurones there.


edit: Both posts were off-topic btw. The relation to Trump is purely in your head because everything that makes Trump opponents look bad should be in the Trump thread to offset all the idiocies Trump is "sperging" (to use your language) all the time.

The election results are on-topic and so was the CNN image. Both those Congressmen have Trump's endorsement, no cucks. The Failing New York Times and their agenda-driven fake news are related to Trump, I posted it as a tangent.

You posted it because it fits your agenda driven narrative.

There is no fake news in that NYT tweet. Take off your aluminum hat for a second.

NO airplanes ... "took aim and brought down the World Trade Center". It is fake news. Islamic terrorists did that.

They deleted that tweet by the way. Just like they deleted their tweet praising Mao Zedong as 'one of history's great revolutionary figures' a few days ago.

Quote:
We’ve deleted a previous tweet about Mao Zedong that lacked critical historical context.

The context being communist genocide I guess.

It isnt fake news. It's called personification.

I am accusing the NYT journalists of twisting a tweet/headline and presenting it in a way that fits their liberal agenda and whitewashing an islamist attack on USA. And I use the slogan Fake News. No need to get literal with me.

You accusation holds no ground and this isnt fake news, like you said. Fake news isnt a slogan either. It's an accusation and its clearly defined by now. But this wasnt fake news. The fact that you're calling it "a slogan", is typical for your weaseling out of everything, just like you happened to "not know" that other pic wasnt photoshopped.

You overblow their choice of words because you have an ingrained perspective in all your intepretations. Wake up.

You are such a zealot that you try to hold on even as the fake news peddlers have already backed down. I don't understand why you bring up the fact that the funny CNN image I posted wasn't in fact photoshopped like I assumed, that just makes it funnier. And defending the NYT shittiness by wanting to be literal and technical?

I am in the right to accuse them of being slimy fake news peddlers and you "harassing" me, grasping at straws and stirring up drama won't stop me.

"It is not fake news, it is personification!!! Yes, it's a valid news title that airplanes took aim and brought down the WTC! VGA man bad!"

I came here to make fun on CNN and NYT and you had to prostitute yourself like this? SAD!

Nobody knows terrorists did it, obviously airplanes fly themselves, the NYT is clearly memory holing here ! Rewriting history and blaming those American planes !
Fake news, reeee ! Literary figures are fake news !

And you dare call couleur's actually intelligent interpretation as grasping for straws ? Very Happy With your retarded twist on their expression ? I guess airplanes do fly themselves then.
You know the French saying : "Les cons, ça ose tout, c'est à ça qu'on les reconnaît ?".

And the good ol' "but whatever dumbfucking shit I said was for FUN, dude ! Why are you harassing me ?" Laughing
